Could this be you? If several saddles have done the exact same thing could it be that you are not symmetrical and the saddle is just breaking into fit the way you are? I know that I do not set square on the bike and I actually need to point the nose of the saddle slightly to the left of center to be comfortable. I have not had the same issue you are seeing and I know that the quality of these saddles is not what is was 10 years ago. But they are leather and they do break in to fit the rider. If the rails are straight then maybe it is you. Have someone ride behind you and see if they can see how you sit, if your back is straight and hips parallel. If not it is no big deal other then helping to explain how your bike need to be adjusted to fit you.

It has about a year of riding on it. Never got wet.Needs Proofhide?Adjustment bolt tightening? When I bought it, it had a slight curve to the nose, and I didn't want to make a fuss and return it, but now I think it is getting worse and rubbing my right thigh. Otherwise this has been a great saddle. What is it with Brooks? I think I have bought 5 in the last few years, and I think three have had either a curved nose, or the rivets aren't symmetrical, or the adjustment bolt is crooked. -- You received this message because you are subscribed to the Google Groups "RBW Owners Bunch" group.
